AS 3786 + state-by-state rental & sale alarm compliance
Key takeaways
4AS 3786 photoelectric smoke alarms have a 10-year operational life and a thicket of state-specific landlord, rental and sale rules — QLD Fire and Emergency Services Act 2016 requires interconnected photoelectric alarms in every bedroom, hallway and storey for all dwellings by 1 January 2027; NSW Residential Tenancies Amendment Act 2019 requires annual landlord testing and 10-year replacement; VIC Residential Tenancies Amendment Regulations 2021 requires annual rental checks; SA/WA/TAS/ACT/NT each carry parallel rental and sale requirements (mains-powered or 10-year sealed battery, photoelectric AS 3786). This pack adds a per-property alarm register (location: hallway, master bed, kids' room, each storey; alarm type photoelectric/dual-sensor; install date; hush button; interconnect mode hardwired/RF/wireless; battery technology), automatic 10-year replace-by alerts, annual rental-round scheduling, button-test + decibel-reading capture on-site, and a landlord/conveyancer-ready compliance cert summarising every alarm against the state's current rule.

About OneBookPlus apps
OneBookPlus apps aren't external integrations stitched together with Zapier or n8n — they're native modules installed inside the same platform you already use for invoicing, bookings, CRM, and accounting. That means Smoke Alarm Compliance Pack reads from and writes to the same customer records, financial entries, and calendar events as every other module, with no scheduled sync delays and no risk of data drift between systems.
Because the marketplace runs inside OneBookPlus, billing is consolidated. Smoke Alarm Compliance Pack appears as a single line on the same OneBookPlus invoice as your plan, so you don't end up reconciling separate vendor charges across three or four different SaaS subscriptions. Cancellation is one click and never reaches into your data — uninstalling an app removes the feature from the UI but preserves the underlying customer, invoice, and booking records, so reinstalling later picks up exactly where you left off.
Every app in the marketplace is built specifically for the Australian small and medium business context: GST and ABN handling are first-class concerns, dates render as DD/MM/YYYY, currency defaults to AUD, and the underlying compliance plumbing (BAS summaries, ATO-friendly records, AHPRA / NDIS / Fair Work checkpoints where relevant) is shared across modules. New Zealand businesses are supported with NZ tax and timezone defaults using the same code paths.

Common questions about Smoke Alarm Compliance Pack and the OneBookPlus app marketplace.
Yes — it carries a state-specific rule matrix. QLD requires interconnected photoelectric alarms in every bedroom, hallway and storey by 1 Jan 2027; NSW requires annual landlord testing and 10-year replacement; VIC requires annual rental checks; and SA/WA/TAS/ACT/NT each have their own parallel rules. The register applies the right one per property.
AS 3786 photoelectric alarms have a 10-year operational life. The register tracks each alarm's install date and alerts you when it's due for replacement, so you never leave a property with an expired alarm.
